Welcome to The Wool Shop!
We are very excited and exceptionally proud of our small range of wool, both raw curls perfect for crafting as well as spinning, and our beautifully soft yarn. The yarn is all hand-washed and hand-dyed at The Border Mill and all wool is 100% from our own girls. Please have a look and feel free to ask any questions!
After the success of our raw Wensleydale curls, 2022 finally saw Di's dream come true. After 30 years of hand spinning and designing a yarn that made her want to pick up the knitting needles, we had our first wool spun. We wanted an independent business as local as possible so, after lots of research, we found the wonderful people at the Border Mill. Di dropped the wool off and spent the day discussing all things yarn and we are absolutely delighted with the products.

Yarn
Yarn for all occasions! All spun and hand-dyed at The Border Mill, we like to keep it British. The tweeds are Wensleydale with a dash of Zwartbles, to give it that extra 'bounce'! Lambswool is 100% Wensleydale. All of the colours are inspired and named after plants found on the farm.

These are digital copies (or links to those we are not at liberty to sell) of knitting patterns that have been designed with our wool.
